On one hand, I have ceased to see twitter evolve much at all over the last N years, much like I used to say of Flickr. I eventually left Flickr because I wasn't seeing improvements for photo sharing and browsing that I really wanted as a photographer.
It's a legitimate problem that he needs to solve. I don't think twitter needs to be much different than what it is, because i'm addicted to it, but it not evolving and just investing in scale I think does need to be addressed.
Ways to find more interesting people and content, and to allow people to have more room to link to other pages/sites/things about themselves might be a start. (Without getting to be too myspacey?).
I definitely like that it's a lot more open than Facebook and can read things without always friending everything, but I also want more controls about what type of content I see and get. Lists are ok-ish, but so many things are so marketey from companies versus just being news feeds, I kind of end up not following companies.
Marketers on twitter are I think it's curse, and it's starting to become that kind of platform.
I tend to agree that Twitter hasn't evolved/progressed much over the past few to several years. I think they've got a lot of potential though. IMO they should have entered the personal messaging space and been one of the top players. They could have eventually link personal messaging with discussion around topics and Twitter as well.
